KING OF MOROCCO CONGRATULATES PRESIDENT BUHARI ON SAFE RETURN HOME

His Majesty King Mohammed VI of Morocco has congratulated President
Muhammadu Buhari on his successful return from a medical vacation in
London.

In a telephone call Thursday, the Moroccan monarch
expressed delight and happiness at the kind of reception Nigerians gave
President Buhari when he returned home. He said it was evidence of a
leader widely loved by his people.

King Mohammed VI, who had been in Nigeria on a state visit last
December, invited President Buhari to visit Morocco in the same fashion.

Responding, the Nigerian President thanked the Moroccan monarch for his
congratulatory call, and the growing partnership between the two
countries.

Earlier today, a Moroccan delegation made of top
government officials had met with senior Nigerian government officials.
Both President Buhari and King Mohammed VI expressed happiness at the
success of the meeting.
